| Wines of France - Burgundy Region | |||||
| A Burgundy wine label will always list the most
specific geographic location that the grapes originate from, and typically
nothing else.
Red Burgundy is made exclusively of the Pinot Noir grape. This is a tempermental
and difficult grape to grow, and quality from vintage to vintage in Burgundy
can vary widely depending on weather.
White Burgundy is made exclusively of Chardonnay. In Burgundy at large (AOC
Bourgogne), it may be made with or without oak. In Chablis, oak is almost
never used. For one accustomed to the heavy oak influence common in most
American Chardonnay, a good Chablis is an interesting change of pace. |
